At first sight this looks to be a well made nice cigar, but appearances can be deceptive. After cutting the end and lighting up I encountered a very tight draw throughout and the strong flavour tasted a lot like old leather and not a lot else. The smell wasn’t that pleasant either! The last 1/4 was very hot. All in all a disappointing smoke really, but I persisted until the end (about 25 minutes all told). Not a cigar I will be revisiting I’m afraid.
